Episode 357: Old (2021)
I watched this with family and while they hated it, I liked it. This isn't a perfect film by any means but there is enough good stuff in this to warrant a watch.

Episode 356: The Wolf Of Snow Hollow (2020)
Probably the best horror/thriller of 2020. It's smart and funny and will definitely make you jump. From up and coming director Jim Cummings, you shouldn't miss this one.
Oct 07, 2021•36 min
Episode 355: Candyman (2021)
While most people will complain about this movie because they have nothing better to do, this a very good well made horror film. They pull a Jaws by not showing you Candyman for a long time but it still works.
Oct 07, 2021•48 min
Episode 354: Malignant (2021)
This is a great under appreciated horror/thriller. I for one can't wait until there more sequels to this one. This is in the category of you either loved it or hated it. I'm OK with telling people they're wrong.

Episode 353: Reminiscence (2021)
We've jumped out of the 70's and are reviewing newer films like this one. We discuss how we've seen this film 25 years ago and how this rendition is quite bad. There's no reason for this film.
Sep 16, 2021•1 hr 11 min
Episode 352: Murder By Death (1976)
A fun little murder mystery with an all-star cast. Predictable in spots but lots of fun. Peter Sellers (nor anyone else) could get away with his character in this film today.
Sep 09, 2021•52 min
Episode 351: Eaten Alive (1976)
We're still in the 70's and this week is Tobe Hooper's Eaten Alive. I mention it again during this episode and here now. THERE IS NO WAY TOBE HOOPER DIRECTED POLTERGEIST. Oh and a puke story at the 57 minute.
Aug 12, 2021•1 hr 7 min
Episode 350: King Kong (1976)
We went big for 1976 in the remake of King Kong. This film is mediocre at best and the performances as well. Charles Grodin is excellent as the corporate sleeze though.
Aug 05, 2021•53 min
Episode 349: The Omen (1976)
The critically popular The Omen is this week's we review. While we both agree that the cinematography is excellent, many other aspects of the film are a bit to be desired. Is it bad? No not really. We respect the film and what it took to make it.
Jul 22, 2021•1 hr 5 min
Episode 348: Assault On Precinct 13 (1976)
We review a classic this week in John Carpenter's Assault On Precinct 13. Don't expect too many complaints but very good observation this week.
Jul 08, 2021•45 min
Episode 347: Mother, Jugs and Speed (1976)
It's true that Joey liked this film way more than Scott. So much in fact that the score at the end had to be discussed a bit more than usual.
Jul 01, 2021•1 hr 7 min
Episode 346: The Food Of The Gods (1976)
H.G. Wells probably would have never expected so many of his stories and literature would be made into film, horrible, low budget, poorly acted film. Poor bastard.
Jun 24, 2021•1 hr 4 min
Episode 345: Massacre At Central High (1976)
The film Massacre At Central High is the film Heathers was inspired by. So much even that the ends are pretty much the same and the characters are similar too.
Jun 17, 2021•1 hr 3 min
Episode 344: Logan's Run (1976)
You can't review 70's films without a bunch of futuristic Sci-Fi movies. Logan's run is one of the most famous. Does it hold up all these years later?
Jun 03, 2021•1 hr 3 min
Episode 343: Escape To Witch Mountain (1975)
So Scott's challenge to Joey of Escape To Witch Mountain has Joey all fired up. Not in a good way though. Expect rants and possible foaming of the mouth.

Episode 340: Oscar Talk: Promising Young Woman (2020)
This week we review Promising Young Woman. While it probably won't win Best Picture (Although it probably should) it's an excellent film and realistically the best one nominated this year.
Apr 15, 2021•47 min
Episode 339: Oscar Talk: The Father (2020)
In what is undoubtably the best performance this year by Anthony Hopkins, this is an excellent film. Best Picture? Maybe not. Best actor for Hopkins? Probably.
Apr 15, 2021•29 min
Episode 338: Oscar Talk: Mank (2020)
Hollywood tends to mirror itself sometimes. That's why when we reviewed Mank we knew why most people didn't like it. Is it flawed? Yes. Is it grand? Yes. Should it win Best Picture? Joey thinks so but not why you think.
Apr 08, 2021•39 min
Episode 337: Oscar Talk: Sound Of Metal (2020)
In this weeks Oscar show we review Sound Of Metal. This is the film Scott really didn't want to see and it's the first film Joey saw before it was nominated. Two different viewpoints on this one.
Apr 08, 2021•39 min
Episode 336: Oscar Talk: The Trial Of The Chicago 7 (2020)
Another true story about 7 individuals who were hand picked in a political trial for starting the 1968 riots in Chicago during the Democratic Nation Convention. Did they? Was it started by police? Is their judge unfit? All valid questions.
Apr 01, 2021•40 min

Apr 01, 2021•37 min
Episode 334: Oscar Talk: Minari (2020)
Loosely but maybe not so loosely based on director Lee isaac Chung's life growing up on a farm in Arkansas. The story of the life and struggle of a Korean family's move from the west coast to rural Arkansas. Listen in as we discuss this one.
Mar 25, 2021•41 min
Episode 333: Oscar Talk: Nomadland (2020)
While although a film, it moves and acts like a documentary in parts. Based on the book Nomandland it's an interesting take on the life and actions of people who choose to live a nomad lifestyle.

Episode 332: Oscar Nominees (2020 - 2021)
Everything is a little different this year. The Academy has allowed films from 2021 through February to be nominated due to the pandemic. Netflix leads the way with 35 nominations and over 200 million subscribers. We even talk Razzies.
Mar 18, 2021•1 hr 25 min
Episode 331: Deep Red (1975)
Scott has never been into war films even though he liked Hacksaw Ridge. As good as that was, 1917 is an incredible piece of film making. Everything from the score to the cinematic landscapes. Scott didn't feel the same way.
Mar 11, 2021•1 hr 38 min
Episode 330: A Boy And His Dog (1975)
A post-apocalyptic future where a boy can telepathically communicate with his dog. They need each other to survive but the boy mostly needs the dog to meet chicks. Well, a bit more than that.
